Burke Lake Park

One of the most popular parks in the DC area, Burke Lake has a variety of activities to keep the entire family occupied. The park has disc golf and traditional golf courses, a campground, several playground areas and picnic shelters. The 200 acre lake is stocked with largemouth bass. Visitors can take a boat out on the lake - rowboat rentals are available.

The double track trail that encircles the lake is always crowded with hikers, joggers, and cyclists. Unless you are at the park during off hours, it is difficult to maneuver through the crowds on the Lake Loop. This park is a perfect choice for taking the family for a leisurely bike ride around the lake & a picnic lunch. There is limited single track riding at Burke Lake, though a few miles of trails do exist that that branch off of the main double track trail around the lake.
